    It doesn’t quite hit the mark, but that’s not to say that it isn’t a pleasant way to while away an hour and a half.

    Review preview for Billion Dollar Babies: The True Story Of The Cabbage Patch Kids

    It quickly becomes apparent that this is more than just the story of the dolls. It is the story of the modern age.

    The story of the doll sensation.
  • The YouTube Effect
    Review preview for The YouTube Effect

    The film is informationally dense; it must have been exhausting to put together, and watching it all at once highlights just what a roller-coaster ride life with YouTube has been.

    Jennie Kermode · 4.5 out of 5

  • On The Line: The Richard Williams Story
    Review preview for On The Line: The Richard Williams Story

    Something is most certainly gained from the presence of Richard himself, who has a vulnerability about him that you might not expect from a man who refused to be cowed by a largely middle-class, white establishment that stood in the way of his girls’ rise to fame.

    Amber Wilkinson · 4 out of 5

    If there’s a single word to describe the latest film from Signe Baumane, it’s vibrancy.

  • Subject
    Review preview for Subject

    While Subject works as a catch-up with the stars of some of the most captivating docs of the past 10 to 20 years, it also offers plenty of food for thought.

    Sunil Chauhan · 4 out of 5
    Unpacks the ethics and responsibility inherent in documentary filmmaking by examining well-known documentaries of the past decade and revealing the impact their commercial success has had on the lives of the onscreen subjects.
  • Huesera
    Review preview for Huesera

    Wonderfully uncomfortable.

    Jennie Kermode · 3.5 out of 5
    Valeria has long dreamed about becoming a mother. After learning that she’s pregnant, she expects to feel happy, yet something’s off. Nightmarish visions and an unshakeable paranoia have her questioning what she wants, and an ancient evil spirit may be the cause.
  • Attachment
    Review preview for Attachment

    Sofie Gråbøl is superb as the troubled Chana.

    Jennie Kermode · 4 out of 5
